Great Expectations.

Inspired by an Alexander McQueen feather Headdress. I love the way the model actually looks like a bird herself.

I seem to have a thing for headdresses (if you haven't caught that yet). I guess this is my little tribute to him, a bit delayed, but I'd been meaning to get around to it for awhile; I just happened to be reminded of my little personal project when I walked by his store last night in the Meatpacking district and nearly tripped drooling over the window display. It was such a huge loss for the fashion world when he left. He was one of my heroes, and by far my favorite designer. A true genius, he absolutely epitomized creativity- the act of creating something from nothing- and never ceased to amaze and astound.
